If you'd like to get the exceptional audiovisual experience, the BenQ W2700 is surely the right product. It is the top top-class 4K projector that is packed with lots of novelty features to deliver customers as realistic watching experience as possible.
To begin with, the BenQ W2700 is made with the newest 4K DMD chip from Texas Instruments. This advanced chip provides a 50% thinner border compared to traditional 4K projectors with DLP chips, which allows you to see a bit more surface screen and enjoy a full picture with no missing edges.
Next comes BenQ’s famous HDR-PROT technology, another highlight of the W2700. This time it is enhanced with HDR10 and HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) support which work to provide incredible visuals with a great sharpness all across the image, regardless of whether you're streaming some dynamic sports events or watching 3D films.
The HDR Brightness Projection optimization is another great feature that contributes towards the image quality making it appealing to users. Once you enable HDR mode, the projector will maintain the ideal contrast levels while showing different image sizes and screen gains. Also of note is DCI-P3 colour space. Common for games/gaming computers, this colour space allows the projector to deftly reproduce authentic cinematic quality, just how the directors have originally envisioned.
In all, if you'd like to turn your living room into a truly inspirational home cinema, the BenQ W2700 can help you with that. For the colour accuracy and contrast, this projector is hard to beat.

What we have here is one of the most sophisticated projectors you can find in the market that costs a bit more than a thousand pounds. At a glance, it becomes obvious that the Viewsonic X10 is a premium device that looks nothing like its rivals. It boasts a luxurious design with a sleek metal surface and elegant leather cover. So, obviously it's the thing you'd like to display rather than hide.
Specs-wise, it has everything to bring you a stunning cinematic experience. Delivering 8.3 million pixels, it can make all projected films, games, and streaming videos amazingly sharp. The model supports SuperColor+ technology to bring out the maximum detail in both bright and dark scenes for enhanced colour ratios. But, for sure, one of the biggest selling points of this model is its ability to play any Blue-ray 3D content in 1080P Full HD formats.
Also, it's unique in the sort of sound it's capable of producing. Two integrated speakers by Harman/Kardon ensure vibrant and powerful sound no matter whether you’re watching films or listening to music. That is to say, the X10-4K can double as a high-quality Bluetooth speaker if you pair it with your phone via Bluetooth. Alternatively, you can use a type-C port to project contents directly from your phone or Wi-Fi connection to stream image and sound wirelessly. And if you have Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant devices in your home, you'll be able to enjoy the convenience of voice control as well.
As you can see, this video projector gives users a lot of options to play with. Though the price may seem a bit high, the kind of features and cinematic experience it offers make it well worth it.

For Sports Fans
If you're one of those who enjoy watching football on a big screen with a big company of friends, the BenQ TK800M is surely the product that can make your football parties much more enjoyable and fun. It's created specifically for big-screen entertainment in a well-lit room.
Designed with the HDR compatibility, it makes even darker scenes look gloomier than ever. It delivers ideal brightness and contrast in any ambient lighting. And that's not to mention the Football Mode that will allow you to enjoy an improved image with lifelike skin tone and lush green grass.
For even more immersive sports experience, the manufacturer has fitted this home projector with the CinemaMaster Audio+2 technology that makes you feel like you're roaring in the cheering crowd during the game. Also, you can switch on the Football Sound Mode to hear every announcer's comment clearly. For other types of entertainment, the unit offers some other custom-tuned sound modes too.
To add more, the model will allow you to watch even the fastest-moving scenes or play dynamic games without any input lag and reduced motion blur. By producing lots of intermediate frames and putting them between the existing ones, it prevents any type of flickerings.
One more improvement is the new 4K DMD chip from Texas Instruments that ensures a 50% thinner border, meaning you'll get more screen surface than ever before. So, nothing will stop you from enjoying every second of the match. The folks behind BenQ have managed to come as close to open-air stadium atmosphere as possible!

Ultra Bright
While most other projectors simply don't allow for watching a movie in a very bright room, this one is different. The ViewSonic PX747-4K delivers a seriously bright picture in almost any light conditions. To understand how powerful the unit is, just consider the fact that it can light up a semi-dark room at around 20% brightness. These amazing results are largely achieved owing to the 3,500 ANSI Lumens this device outputs, which is much more than any other model in its price range offers. That also means you'll get vivid and bright images in any environment, including rooms with a very high level of ambient light.
Moving on, we would like to stress that this model supports the High Dynamic Range technology that is praised for its ability to deliver outstanding vibrancy and natural colour reproduction. That is to say, you can expect a true-to-life colour performance in either bright or dark environment without sacrificing image quality. Add to that the 'Super Resolution' and 'Colour Enhancement' features, and you'll get ultra-sharp pictures with excellent colour gradation.
Yet, it would be remiss of us if we didn't mention that it's not a real 4K projector. This model uses pixel-shifting technology that effectively splits the pixels and then sends them again giving more than 8 million pixels in total. That's why it's advertised as a 4K model but, in reality, it can't play 4K content from a Fire TV stick, for example. That being said, this projector is still one of the cheapest and brightest models on the market. It costs nearly as much as 1080P models yet, certainly, produces a far better image.

For Heavy-duty Use
If you're one of those who often display slide presentations on a big screen, watch films all night long, or play games for hours, you probably need a reliable projector for heavy-duty use. And the AAXA 4K1 LED Home Theater Projector is exactly like that. It's designed with 4 channel LEDs that have an outstanding 30,000-hour life, meaning you won't need to spend money on replacements in the long run. Although quad-cast LEDs can't boast superior brightness and produce just 1500 Lumens in total, they ensure decent colour quality.
To get the most out of this LED projector, we recommend you to use it in low-light conditions. And no matter whether you're going to use it for business or host an outdoor movie night, you have an option to attach the unit to a ceiling mount to provide a professional watching experience (a ceiling mount kit should be purchased separately).
As another advantage, the whole thing is designed with a convenient keypad and comes with an additional remote for wireless control. The said remote can even adjust the focus owing to the Motorized Electronic Focus feature. It's quite nice that the projector starts instantly with no warm-up time. Also, it requires no cool-down time.
The only Achilles heel of this model is sound quality. Since it's fitted with dual 2-Watt speakers, don't expect booming bass from it. That said, it's a common problem with most projectors. Anyways, you can always use some outside sources like a pair of speakers that can be easily connected via an audio input. Other than that, you'll have nothing to dislike about this model. With its long lamp life, it's ideal for home cinemas, gaming, and business use.

What Is a 4K Projector?
There's a good chance you are already familiar with these optical devices which purpose is to project an image onto a surface, with that surface usually being a projection screen plastered all over a wall. Well, a 4K projector isn't conceptually different from a regular projector except for the fact that it is capable of supporting the Ultra High Definition resolution of 3840 × 2160 pixels. With twice the number of pixels compared to your standard Full HD (1080p), you will be able to enjoy the sort of detailed image that you simply wouldn't get out of a typical projector with the size of that image that no television set is capable of delivering. Of course, even though each and every one of 4K projectors are capable of supporting the Ultra HD resolution, different models still feature different specifications, such as the number of connections, the lamp life, the brightness, and a number of potential extra features and technologies that any particular model may or may not come equipped with. You should also take the optical zoom and the throw ratio into consideration since those will determine where you will be able to place the projector.
Taking the often subpar quality of audio in these projectors into account, we would also recommend looking into a set of speakers. You could also purchase a new video game console and enjoy exhilarating gameplay on an enormous screen.
